    Emission factors used to calculate CO2 emissions
    Scope 1: "List of Calculation Methods and Emission Factors in the Calculation, Reporting, and Disclosue System," Japan's Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry.
    Scope 2: [Japan] Factors published by the Electric Power Council for a Low Carbon Society, [Others] "IEA Emissions Factors 2021"
    Data are regularly recalculated retroactively based on the latest factors.
    Scope 3: "Emission Intensity Database ver.3.3," Japan's Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry. (Please refer to the next footnote *3 for "1. Purchased goods and services")

  • *2

    The calculation scope covers the supply chain associated with our core manufacturing business.
    "8. Upstream leased assets": Excluded because they are already included in Scope 1 and Scope 2.
    Other categories not listed in the table or noted: Exclued because SMK primarily manufactures intermediate products and the related emissions impact is minimal.

  • *3

    Calculated using a combination of primary data from surveys of major suppliers’ GHG emissions and secondary data based on input–output tables.
    The FY2025 results are a preliminary estimate based on the GHG emissions intensity per unit of purchase value from FY2024; they are scheduled to be recalculated and disclosed in the fourth quarter of FY2026.
